Agreed, and I like the explanation of the choice of name and the colour / design decision of the silver and black. Very stylish.

After modification, the low frequency effect of 332C is better than 332s.
Will it improve the sound if I add another capacitor ?

Where can I buy those ?? I can't find where to buy stuff like that anywhere.....

Is it worth buying and can a person who doesn't know anything about this stuff put it in the amp ? (like me)

What are the tubes used in the new amp? Can they be easily found from common places such as ebay?

Adding a capacitor will improve low frequency. The capacitor used by 332C is American EC(40uF). you can add the same EC (40uF), and the prive is about USD3.00/pc. Also you can use other better capacitors. Please note the added capacitor will be in parallel connection with the previously added capacitor.

The tubes used by 339 are Russia OTK6*4 (2 pcs) and Chinese 6N13 (2 pcs). The added adapter can replace OTK6*1 with EF860,7788 and EF80, the effects of which have been confirmed well by our test. The adpter for 6SN7 was just made out, currently, it's under test between 6SN7 and 339.

Looking great, yuking.

I have a question: how would I go about replacing the volume pot in a Darkvoice 332? Is it soldered in there or does it just pop out? Looks soldered to me from the picture, I'm using it right now so I can't open it

Hi, I am going to buy revised version of 332S. Does any body have more experience with this revised unit? Is the hum finally eliminated?

The revised version is great and I fully recommend it! There is no hum with the volume knob at normal to loud listening levels. If you turn the knob fully up, there is some hum but this is fully irrelevant. I'm sure you'll like it!

capacitor,but the pot can be exchanged directly, very simple.
